The Golden Globes winners were announced last night, in what I am told was a boring press conference (I didn’t watch, but my sister did, and gave me the blow by blow on the phone).
Basket of Kisses was right on top of it, and I’m feeling really good about it. What’s Basket of Kisses, you ask? That’s the Internet’s only unofficial Mad Men blog. co-authored by Roberta and me. Mad Men won twice last night; best dramatic series, and best actor in a dramatic series (John Hamm), beating out impressive competition.
Eighty percent of EOnline’s respondents have never seen Mad Men. Time to change all that. The first season will be re-run Monday mornings/Sunday nights at midnight (y’know, the Monday that starts after the 11pm Sunday show ends), beginning January 20 on AMC. Watch it, and then visit Basket of Kisses for lively discussion.
I knew this show was a winner after seeing only one episode. I am thrilled I’ll be able to get caught up on back episodes. The AMC website gives detailed synposes of each one but I would rather watch them.
We’re doing our own episode recaps at Basket of Kisses. We’ve got 5 of 13 episodes so far with full (2000 words or so) recaps, plus short summaries of all of them.
